“To stay competitive, increase productivity or protect citizens, workers in the most extreme environments are more connected than ever,” said Tom Wang, President, GammaTech.

Fremont, CA (PRWEB)November 15, 2017

GammaTech Computer Corporation, the North American branch of Twinhead International Corporation, today announced upgrades to its fully rugged DURABOOK R8300 laptop. The device now features Intel® 7th generation Core™ processors, improved graphics capabilities, increased battery life and the elevated security offered by Windows 10. The proven R8300 is used around the world by military forces, public safety agencies, and field service organizations, including companies in the oil & gas, logistics, utilities, and telecommunications markets.

“To stay competitive, increase productivity or protect citizens, workers in the most extreme environments are more connected than ever,” said Tom Wang, President, GammaTech. “Having a device that stands up to the rain, vibration, drops, and temperatures these workers face only addresses half of the equation. These soldiers, public safety officers, and field workers need the same level of performance and security their desk-bound colleagues enjoy. With these upgrades, the DURABOOK R8300 delivers the performance our customers desire.”

Engineered for Extremes
The DURABOOK R8300 R3 is engineered to operate reliably in the most extreme environments. The device meets military standards and has other critical certifications for drop, vibration, ingress, salt fog, hazardous environments, temperature, humidity, and altitude.

Multi-Shift Battery Life
Mobile workers in extreme environments do not have the luxury of plugging-in and charging their batteries. The R8300 is designed to address this challenge with a hot-swappable, dual battery option, now providing up to 21 hours of power, for multi-shift performance.

Greater Security with Windows 10
Security is top-of-mind for organizations with a large mobile workforce. Windows 10, the most secure Windows ever, addresses this concern by offering users a layered defense to help protect, detect, and respond to security threats. The Department of Defense (DoD), for instance, is in the process of moving all branches of the military to this operating system. Running a 64-bit Windows 10 Professional platform, the DURABOOK R8300 R3 is a secure mobile computing solution users can trust.

Skylake Platform
To meet the needs of government customers that are not ready to move to Windows 10, GammaTech continues to offer the DURABOOK R8300 R2 (Skylake version), which features Intel 6th generation Skylake Core i5 (6200U) and i7 (6500U) 15W U series SoC processors with integrated Intel HD 520 graphics.

The DURABOOK R8300 R3 will be available, starting at $3199, in late Q4 2017. All DURABOOK rugged computers are available from authorized resellers and include a standard three-year warranty. Sales inquiries for DURABOOK products should be directed to sales(at)gammatechusa(dot)com or 800-995-8946.
